WANDERERS have confirmed that nearly £1million was spent on agents’ fees between October 2014 and September 2015.
Despite not spending a penny on transfer fees during the whole period – which also coincides with Neil Lennon’s arrival at the club – the sum of £964,869 is bound to raise eyebrows among supporters.
The amount is up considerably on the previous accounting period, between July 1 2013 and June 20 2014, when the Football League revealed that Wanderers had paid out £639,840 in fees.
That was roughly half of what they had spent a year earlier, when the same report detailed a spend of £1,605,723.
Two other clubs have thus far released the details of what they spent on agents in the same time period last season: Burnley (£1,363,860) and Brighton £912,420. The Clarets, however, were a Premier League club last term.
